EARLY CHILDHOOD SCREENING<br />
Calling all 3-Year-Olds! It’s time for Screening!<br />
Early Childhood Screening provides an opportunity for children and<br />
their parents to participate in a health and developmental screening<br />
after their third birthday. State law requires screening for all<br />
children entering public school kindergarten, ideally at 3 years old.<br />
Identifying potential health, developmental problems or concerns<br />
early allows time for intervention and remediation during the<br />
critical formative years. Families participating in Early Childhood<br />
Screening may be referred to community health and educational<br />
services including School Readiness and ECFE.<br />
Early Childhood Screening includes:<br />
• Immunization records<br />
• Hearing and vision<br />
• Speech and developmental screening<br />
• Height and weight<br />
• Summary interview with parents<br />

What Happens During Screening?<br />
The parent attends the entire screening process with their<br />
child along with a team of specialists. Your child will have a<br />
developmental progress review by a speech/language clinician.<br />
A review of your child’s vision, hearing, height, weight and<br />
immunization history will be conducted by one of our health<br />
professionals. The parent/s will then participate in a family factors<br />
interview to review the screening process and talk about any<br />
concerns they may have.<br />
Who Needs to be Screened?<br />
All children living in District 728 who are 3, 4, or 5 years old and<br />
not currently enrolled in kindergarten NEED to participate in this<br />
FREE screening program before entering kindergarten, or have an<br />
equivalent screening from a doctor. Age three is the recommended<br />
age for screening. Children who attend Head Start or Early<br />
Childhood Special Education Services programs may not have to<br />
participate in Early Childhood Screening.<br />
Is the Program Required?<br />
Yes. Minnesota state law requires that your child must be screened<br />
for enrollment in a public school. Children are not permitted to enter<br />
public school without having Early Childhood Screening and up-todate<br />
immunizations.)<br />
If you are planning to send your child to private or home school the<br />
screening is not required by law, however, we still encourage you to<br />
participate. This is a wonderful opportunity for you to find out how<br />
your child is developing.<br />
